An ideal day from beginning to end sounds like a dream but I guess, it would run along these lines.
The alarm does not work. I get to sleep a little longer.
I get up refreshed.
Check myself in the mirror and see a slim and trim version of myself looking back.
“I do not need to exercise today,†my mind says. I agree.
I realize it is a holiday, so no need to switch on the laptop and check or respond to office emails.
All the same, I switch on the laptop, just to browse social media apps. Posts where my friends are depressed and complaining are all over. I am glad, my life is better than theirs. 
Later, as I walk into the dining room, I find both my wife and son agreeing to every word I say.
The phone rings, and it is the bank informing me that I have got a six digit refund from the income tax authorities.
The doorbell rings, it is my obnoxious neighbor informing us that they are moving out.
I go to my room, put on some 80s music and go to sleep.
